  1. Ravens secondary to get tested by Lions' 'Megatron,' Matthew Stafford

    After a rocky start against the Atlanta Falcons a week ago, the Ravens secondary gets a shot to make amends when wide receiver Calvin Johnson, quarterback Matthew Stafford and the Detroit Lions visit M&T Bank Stadium on Friday night.

  2. Ravens news, notes and opinions

    Rookies <strong><span class="runtimeTopic">Courtney Upshaw</span></strong> and <strong><span class="runtimeTopic">Bernard Pierce</span></strong>, and veterans like <strong><span class="runtimeTopic">Matt Birk</span></strong> and <strong><span class="runtimeTopic">Ray Lewis</span></strong> are all expected to make their 2012 preseason debuts tonight against the <span class="runtimeTopic">Detroit Lions</span>. But the guy who may be under the microscope the most -- assuming he plays -- is <strong><span class="runtimeTopic">Jimmy Smith</span></strong>. The second-year cornerback appeared to have his back lock up on him late in Wednesday&rsquo;s practice, forcing him to exit. He missed last week&rsquo;s preseason opener, and four or five days of practice time, with back spasms. Earlier in camp, he exited one practice after straining his shoulder, and another after cramping up. Smith, a first-round pick last year, came to camp in great shape and looking extremely motivated to push <strong><span class="runtimeTopic">Cary Williams</span></strong> for his starting cornerback job. He spent a lot of time in the offseason at the <span class="runtimeTopic">Ravens</span>&rsquo; facility and in the weight room, and team officials raved about his work ethic and commitment. So it has to be disappointing that the injuries have cropped up in training camp, especially after he essentially missed four games last season with a high <span class="runtimeTopic">ankle sprain</span>. Whether he starts or not, the Ravens are going to need him on the field with all of the top quarterbacks and pass-happy teams that they play.
